There is now fairly well understood evidence that the frequency of storms is cyclically increasing in the Americas (going up here and nowhere else) but the severity of all storms is increasing globally. The Gulf of Mexico in particular is a major heat source as average surface water temp there has shot up nearly a full degree in the past decade. If this latest monster wipes Galveston, as currently forecast, that will be two US cities gone in one season. "Unprecedented" doesn't begin to cover it. Sadly, I fear this will not be the last such season.
I do not do interest memes because, well, I have no interests. At least, none that increase my LJ reading.
I wish people were more comfortable owning their words.
I continue to wrestle with my personal demons.
Why isn't today Friday?
Soon it will be fireplace and hot tub weather. I'm quite looking forward to that.
